New ADF Virus Checker Demo

[Art]

Hi Guys,
Here's a demo of my new ADF bootblock virus checker for Windows...



It looks for virus definitions as done traditionally, but can also use
known virus decryption algorithms to brute force decrypt new virus
variants that it doesn't have definitions for.
An undocumented Lamer Exterminator variant was found this way.

Right now the demo can only check one Amiga Disk File at a time,
and is limited to checking for The LAMER Exterminator !!! virus,
but updates should follow.

NEW LINK IN POST!!

Cheers, Art.

My PC was indeed infected, and it hit the exe right when it was compiled.
I tried to have this post pulled before it was approved,
and have now moved the project to a clean Windows install:

I don't like Windows very much

Who knew Amiga viruses were zoonotic?

It was a PC virus, and totally my fault for being there.
The program contains LEx decrypt routines in asm and ported to C,
and I thought the virus being detected just shared the same routines and that's what was being identified.
So then I started selectively removing them, and Avast was never satisfied.

Kind of embarrassing to make a virus checker come bundled with a working virus.

There are some Windows programs that check for LEx and could report this.
Interestingly, there is a Sony PSP bricker that makes the list also,
I think it's Nortons that looks for that one.
